We’re looking for a Level 3 Early Years Practitioner to join our team at Little Meadows Preschool.
This is a permanent role for 19.5 hours per week, worked across three days (term time only) — a lovely opportunity for someone looking for balance, while still doing meaningful work.
At Little Meadows, relationships come first. We’ve created a calm, thoughtful environment where children feel safe, valued and able to truly be themselves. We are intentionally small, because quality matters to us — for the children, and for our team.
We are now at a really important stage in our journey, developing our curriculum and strengthening how we work together as a team. We’re looking for someone who feels excited by this — someone who is confident to lead and shape our curriculum, and take real ownership of this area of practice.
We’re looking for someone who:
✨ Is warm, reflective and genuinely passionate about early years
✨ Holds a Level 3 qualification (or above)
✨ Feels confident supporting and leading children’s learning
✨ Is ready to take on responsibility, while being supported as part of a close team
This role would suit someone who wants to grow within a setting, and be part of shaping something thoughtful, child-centred and meaningful.
Salary: Competitive, with scope for progression based on experience and responsibility
Start date: As soon as possible (we are happy to wait for the right person)
We are reviewing applications as they come in and will arrange conversations as suitable candidates apply.
We reserve the right to close the advert once a suitable candidate has been appointed.
